“ Let Reuben live and not die, nor his people be few.”

Here’s what Moses said about Reuben.“ Let Reuben live. Don’t let him die. And do not let his people be few.”

“ Let Reuben live, and not die, but let his men be few.”

Moses said this about the tribe of Reuben:“ Let the tribe of Reuben live and not die out, though they are few in number.”

Let Reuben live and not die though his people become few.

“ May Reuben live and not die, Nor may his people be few.”

“ Let Reuben live, and not die, Nor let his men be few.”

Let Reuben live, and not die; Nor let his men be few.

Let Reuben live, and not die; and let[ not] his men be few.

May Reuben live and not die, and may his people multiply.

“ Let Reuben live, and not die; Nor let his men be few.”

Reuben, you are my firstborn, my strength and the firstfruits of my virility, excelling in prominence, excelling in power.Turbulent as water, you will no longer excel, because you got into your father’s bed and you defiled it— he got into my bed.

Joshua summoned the Reubenites, Gadites, and half the tribe of Manassehand told them,“ You have done everything Moses the Lord’s servant commanded you and have obeyed me in everything I commanded you.You have not deserted your brothers even once this whole time but have carried out the requirement of the command of the Lord your God.Now that He has given your brothers rest, just as He promised them, return to your homes in your own land that Moses the Lord’s servant gave you across the Jordan.Only carefully obey the command and instruction that Moses the Lord’s servant gave you: to love the Lord your God, walk in all His ways, keep His commands, remain faithful to Him, and serve Him with all your heart and all your soul.”Joshua blessed them and sent them on their way, and they went to their homes.Moses had given territory to half the tribe of Manasseh in Bashan, but Joshua had given territory to the other half, with their brothers, on the west side of the Jordan. When Joshua sent them to their homes and blessed them,he said,“ Return to your homes with great wealth: a huge number of cattle, and silver, gold, bronze, iron, and a large quantity of clothing. Share the spoil of your enemies with your brothers.”The Reubenites, Gadites, and half the tribe of Manasseh left the Israelites at Shiloh in the land of Canaan to return to their own land of Gilead, which they took possession of according to the Lord’s command through Moses.

Judah, your brothers will praise you. Your hand will be on the necks of your enemies; your father’s sons will bow down to you.

The Gadites and Reubenites replied,“ What the Lord has spoken to your servants is what we will do.We will cross over in battle formation before the Lord into the land of Canaan, but we will keep our hereditary possession across the Jordan.”
